Officer Charged with Murder in Latest Traffic Stop Incident


That Cincinatti officer in the traffic stop case a few days ago has in fact been in fact charged with murder by the authorities.  Here’s another glaring event of an officer caught in a lie.  A white cop stops a black motorist and asks for his license and registration.  The guy doesn’t have it.  The officer reaches in to open the door (?) and the motorist steps on the gas to make his escape.  The officer then fires and kills the motorist.  He then runs the hundred yards or so to where the car has now crashed into a tree and he falsely claims the motorist was dragging him and shooting the motorist was the only way to remedy the problem.  This is about as blatant case of malice as you’ll ever see.

They now have a major piece of evidence to go on in this Malaysian flight 370 case.  They found the wing flap of a Boeing 777 in the Indian Ocean, which is way west of where other people were looking.  Since this is the only Boeing 777 that is missing, it kind of narrows it down.  Anyhow it’s nice to know the plane didn’t magically vaporize into thin air.

 FOX news is now installing a “kiddy table” for those who aren’t good enough to play with the big boys.  And there is a seventeenth candidate entering the Presidential race- - from Virginia, whom nobody has heard of.  That makes seven or eight at the kiddy table.  If they are tied for tenth they should drop them both because even nine on stage will be really crowded with candidates really having to talk fast to make an impression.  I can’t escape the feeling that if the Republicans are as repressive as they usually are why Reinz Previs couldn’t just arbitrarily say “Donald Trump, you are excluded because you’re bad for the image of the Party we want to show ourselves as”.  Otherwise Donald or “The Donald” for you Romulans- - is going to suck up all the oxygen in the room and dominate the debate.

There is the story about how the US was at best “ambiguous” about this military coup in Honduras in June of 2009 installing a corrupt dictator.  I have covered this story in a blog also.  The justice system has thrown out the rule book and has become completely politicized.  On Democracy Now this guy that was kicked out “Zoliah” is being interviewed.  Hillary won’t talkabout this coup in her campaign.  Finally we have Bobby Jindell, who was voted the worse governor in America today.  His state is in shambles.  Apparently the governor’s office has sponsored “Duck Dynesty” to keep it on the air because Jindell considers it important. 

I watched “Ring of Fire” and they covered this story I already covered of how Scott Walker literally bought himself out of indictment and jail terms.  The silver lining in all this is that Scott Walker can’t run for governor again, so it’s either the Presidency or nothing.  Therefore I now see how the Koch Brothers consider it vital that Walker get into national office.  There is the story about how the US was at best “ambiguous” about this military coup in Honduras in June of 2009 installing a corrupt dictator.  I have covered this story in a blog also.  The justice system has thrown out the rule book and has become completely politicized.  On Democracy Now this guy that was kicked out “Zoliah” is being interviewed.  Hillary won’t talkabout this coup in her campaign.  Finally we have Bobby Jindell, who was voted the worse governor in America today.  His state is in shambles.  Apparently the governor’s office has sponsored “Duck Dynesty” to keep it on the air because Jindell considers it important. 

People have become more bullish on the stock market the past few weeks.  No year in my lifetime has ever been a down year in a year ending with a five.  Will this trend hold?  I don't think so - not this time.  For six months the markets have been in a "trading range" zone neither gaining nor losing much. Along the lines of the eighty year cycle of economic crash followed by War- - it’s Thom Hartman’s belief that when the last influential people remember the horrors of both economic recession and war- - then the safeguard to it’s happening again are gone so it’s “Those who forget history are condemned to repeat it”.  I would throw in the crash of 1982 half way in the middle also bringing about eventual War (a “troff” war) and then major reforms.   The only time we never got reforms nor war was the crash of 1982 in the forty-year mid cycle.

The Excel file for the interest rate triangle is “compounding” but it uses the old method competing a problem where the rate of interest is unknown.  If you have money and it doubles in ten years what is the rate?  It’s just over seven percent for ten years and just over fourteen percent for five years.  You take the fraction of ten (length) or five (length) and make a fractional exponent out of one (point one), for ten years.  So it would be exponent point 2 for five years.  In the compounding file I use the longer EXP method I also used in BASIC.  Of course when Time is the unknown factor, you divide a Log by a Log, and the answer is a Log but doesn't have to be decoded because Time is the unknown factor and Time itself is a Log in this case.
